2019 Garden

A week ago today we got ice, then snow here in central Oklahoma. Not common, but not unusual either. Snow is sometimes called the "poor man's fertilizer" and I have read that it does add nitrogen to the soil. So I'll take it. Here is a pic of my vegetable garden beds on that day.

After a couple of days, the snow had already melted for the most part. But as can be seen here, my southern-most garden bed is in perpetual shadow this time of year due to the fence. So it is still covered in snow, while the others are bare.

Soon, perhaps this coming weekend, I will begin turning the soil and mixing in compost in preparation for the coming spring planting season.
